Christmas and Holiday Traditions Around the World at Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park

November 18, 2009 - January 10, 2010

Excitement surrounds us this time of year as Christmas and Holiday Traditions Around the World brings the glow of 300,000 lights, strolling carolers, horse-drawn carriage rides and more than 40 international trees and displays. A new feature this year is a Vietnamese Ancestral Altar celebrating the Lunar New Year, Tet Nguyen Dan, along with the return of three important festive displays honoring the Chinese New Year, the Muslim celebration of Eid ul-Fitr, and the unique illumination traditions from the Philippines known as Parols. There will also be extended holiday hours on December 26, 28, 29 and 30th. The entire facility will be open until 9 pm.
Enjoy the Spirit of the Season

Have fun reminiscing with family memories throughout the entire Christmas and Holiday Traditions Around the World exhibition, including the Railway Garden, or bundle up and head out to the Children's Garden for hands-on holiday fun with several interactive daily activities.


The Railway Garden, beloved by children of all ages, will again travel through lush gardens, over bridges and past buildings-all made using only natural materials. While our train and trolleys are always popular, this year features a holiday scents display with wonderful seasonal smells to spark holiday memories.
